– Shotguns have been improved to become the king of close-quarter gun fights. It will pack a mean punch up close, but also have a steep damage fall-off as distance to the target increases.
– TIP: Don’t be scared of early game bum rushes by opponents. With their low defenses, you can quickly take out your enemies by aiming at their torso.
– TIP: Shotguns are strong weapons, but the SWAT’s Close-range Defense is also just as strong. Be wary when you spot a SWAT.

Before: Deals 100% damage between 0 and 10 meters. From 10 to 40 meters, damage will gradually fall off down to 30%.
After: Deals 100% damage between 0 and 10 meters. From 10 to 25 meters, damage will gradually fall off down to 30%.
